Sure thing! Here we go:

So, something wild happened with the PS Store on the PS5. They threw us a curveball, in a good way, adding new ways to pay for stuff. I mean, just when Sony decided to chill with the PlayStation Visa card points, they went and added Apple Pay and Cash App. Apple’s offering a cashback deal too. This is after they kept these options tucked away in the PS App. Sneaky, right?
Okay, so back to the real deal here. People online, like those tech wizards at 9TO5Mac, were the first to spill the beans about Apple Pay showing up in the console store. And, surprise, surprise, Cash App joined the party too. This is on top of paying how we usually do, like with Venmo or the old-school debit/credit cards.
The highlight? Apple Pay is throwing a bone with a 2% cashback for those rocking an Apple Card. But wait, there’s a catch. It’s not as smooth as we’d hoped. It’s like, you see a game you want, you think it’s gonna be smooth sailing, but then — bam! — you have to pull out your phone, scan some code, and mess around with Face ID or Touch ID. Yup, no quick clicks here.
Sure, if you’re dreaming of a swift tap-and-go, this might make you groan. But hey, with game prices skyrocketing, maybe that cashback is worth the little dance.
Oh, and a quick heads-up — this update? Only on PS5 for now. PS4 buddies, hang tight!
